my DS is a week old and I've noticed when he's sleeping he wheezes. he will breathe normally then suddenly wheezes 5 or 6 times like he can't catch his breath.
it doesn't seem to bother him and if i sit him up it stops. he feeds fine and he's a lovely colour.

is this normal? is he just gettin used to breathing?

My DS is now 9 weeks and he did this too for the first couple of weeks, he'd sometimes catch his breath too, very scary but he was always ok. Check with you MW or HV for peace of mind
